Chris Doering pays off LSU-Florida College World Series bet, dresses in Tigers gear

Chris Doering made good on his College World Series bet with Peter Burns when he rocked an LSU baseball uniform Sunday, as headed to SEC Media Days in Nashville.

Doering, a Florida guy, and Burns, a Baton Rouge native and LSU fan, have a history of playful bets. On Sunday, it was all about Doering and the attire he wore in transit to the week-long event.

LSU cranked up its offense a day after it gave up the most runs ever in a College World Series game and won its first national title since 2009 with a 18-4 victory over Florida in the third and deciding game of the finals. LSU staved off elimination three times in bracket play and bounced back from a 24-4 loss in Game 2 to claim its seventh championship.

That’s second to Southern California’s 12. The Tigers wiped out an early 2-0 deficit with a six-run second inning against Jac Caglianone and Cade Fisher.
